Julian Edelman Dealing With New Injury

The New England receiver is coming off of a year where he missed the entire 2017 season campaign to a torn ACL suffered in the preseason. Now, the problem is with is heel. Edelman was listed as a limited practice participant on the team's injury report. That's no cause for immediate concern, but it's worth some close monitoring.

Tom Brady and New England will need their star receiver to as close to 100 percent as possible, as they'll travel to Chicago this weekend to face a stout Bears defense led by the fearsome Khalil Mack. The former Raider has been nothing short of sensational since he was traded to Chicago at the beginning of this year.

Edelman's heel will be something that we'll be paying close attention to moving forward, and we'll get a better indication of how he's progressing over the next two days.
